Some fantastic research from @E61Institute on teacher recruitment and retention out today. First time (to my knowledge) anyone has used administrative data to answer key questions about the teacher workforce nationally.

🚨🚨🚨Today @SilviaGriseld and Jack Buckley release new research on the state of teacher workforce, with a particular focus on attrition. 🌟The main message? 🌟Teacher attrition isn’t rising — in fact, it’s now the lowest of any occupation in Australia. But challenges remain.

Fascinating read. I agree with it all but unfortunately can't see much of a chance of this shift happening while so many political parties take economic growth as a given (or even see it as a thing to be wary of).

Almost as loveably econ-nerdy as when @ALeighMP asked the staff at the @ABSStats not to "hold it against me that you have a Stata user as your Assistant Minister". Though uttering this at a campaign event when you're the aspirational PM is a step-up in a different way!.

Looking to expand our amazing team at @EdResearchAU! If you have a keen eye for critically appraising research (especially in making judgements on how much weight to place on causal claims) and using it to inform policy, this role may be of interest.

Half-way through and really enjoying this one despite not knowing a thing about soccer! And a unique pleasure to see @EconTalker (who I've listened to since 2007) interview someone who I've been reading & following for some time too (since 7 myths came out at least).

Four community early education and care centres at the Australian National University have been told their licences will end in six months because the heritage-listed buildings are too difficult to maintain. #education .
